7 Comedies That Made Pop Culture Cameos the New Norm
Cinematic Listology By Monika Bartyzel on June 20, 2014 | Be the First To CommentThere was a time when the comedic cameo was a special, timeless treat. It would blend fiction and reality in an irresistible way, one that that might accentuate the rant of a neurotic New Yorker, like Marshall McLuhan in Annie Hall, elaborate on the subtext of comic books like Stan Lee in Mallrats, set the scene of the narrative like the many grunge cameos in Singles, or embody the dream of every struggling college student when paper-subject Kurt Vonnegut pops up to give Rodney Dangerfield some help in Back to School. The above are all contextual, rare and so particular that they're still remembered all these years later. They were both a viewer treat and an addition that added legitimacy to the film's message. But what about today? Cameos have shifted from the exception to the norm – I Love You Man, This is the End, Veronica Mars, Zombieland and The Hangover are some of the many modern comedies that throw in a cameo just to have one (some good, others not so much). There are films that get away with it – one can't blame the 21 Jump Street folks for wanting some source material cameos, for instance – but generally, it's about a wacky pop culture fun. Ten years ago it was already wearing thin. In a piece at Slate, Adam Sternbergh wrote of the rising ironic cameo culture during the release of Dodgeball, and concluded: "the satire fizzled. So many people were in on the joke that it […]
Excelsior! The 10 Best Stan Lee Movie Cameos
Cinematic Listology By Kevin Carr on July 9, 2012 | Comments (1)There used to be a time when only die-hard comic book fans knew what Stan Lee looked like. His likeness appeared in many of the Marvel comic books for the 60s, 70s, and 80s, but to the average person, he was nothing more than a guy with some shaded glasses. Then Hollywood started putting the guy in some movies. He's never had a very big part, but to honor the man for helping to create some of the most legendary superheroes (and some of the biggest moneymakers for the movie business), Lee has been given customary cameos in almost every major movie that has been made from characters he helped create. Those who have seen The Amazing Spider-Man (which should be most of you faithful readers, by now) were treated to one of his best and funniest cameos yet. And with more Marvel movies coming down the pike, he's sure to show up many times again. This gave us a chance to look back on his many appearances over the years and assemble a list of his ten best cameos. Excelsior!
12 Awesome Celebrities Playing Themselves In Movies
Cinematic Listology By David Christopher Bell on April 19, 2012 | Comments (8)If Jesus or Tupac ever finally return like we've all been saying they will, they should probably do it in a Judd Apatow film or something like that. We love cameos, don't we? It's especially delightful when it's extremely unexpected, and of course extra points if they are playing themselves – or better yet some kind of silly version of themselves. It's all about recognizing the kind of person you are perceived to be, and then playing off that in a way that makes the audience realize that you are in on the joke. If a celebrity is able to do that, it's instant coolness.
6 Famous Movie Locations Making Cameos in Other Movies
Cinematic Listology By David Christopher Bell on November 17, 2011 | Comments (3)Hollywood is good at recycling things. After all, you build a giant house or an elaborate prop and you wouldn't just use it once and toss it, right? This is why they have backlots at studios; they can hoard all their favorite stuff for later use (like the iconic building in the image above) or, failing that, at least use it for the studio tours. Same kind of goes for on-location sets – some places are just too dynamic to use only once, especially when the owner is more than willing to pimp out their place for cash. This circle of life is great when you are working with a generic looking high school or cookie-cutter set but there are the occasional moments when they use a location just a little too iconic for its own good – and like a type-cast actor, you can't help but to see the location as anything besides what made it famous in the first place.
Shock Rocker Alice Cooper to Appear in Tim Burton's 'Dark Shadows'
Movie News By Nathan Adams on November 2, 2011 | Comments (1)Alice Cooper has long been considered one of the preeminent denizens of the dark. With his lifelong commitment to horror makeup, heavy metal music, and golf, it couldn't have happened any other way. So when director Tim Burton needed a music act to appear in his upcoming adaptation of the old, spooky soap Dark Shadows, Cooper seemed like an easy fit. Hero Complex reports that the Rock and Roll Hall of Famer is set for a cameo in the film where he will be performing his hit song 'No More Mr. Nice Guy.' The setup for the scene is that Johnny Depp's character, wealthy vampire Barnabas Collins, is throwing an elaborate ball at his palatial estate, and he hires Cooper to be the musical entertainment. To bring Collins's home to life, Burton and his crew have constructed an elaborate series of sets that includes a gothic mansion and a harbor city complete with piers and boats floating in an artificial ocean. Cooper was so impressed with what he saw that, while at a Universal Studios Halloween event, he opined, "They should take that set and make it a haunted house next year." He also had some kind words to say about Burton, and how he and the director relate to and understand one another very well, "Rock and horror and comedy work together, that's something I've known a long time and people like Rob Zombie know, and Burton knows that too … I just saw Final Destination 5 and I was […]
When Zoolander came out on September 28, 2001, the production had digitally removed The World Trade Center's Twin Towers from the New York City skyline in an effort to avoid displaying a devastating image in the middle of a comedy about the world of fashion. If they'd have left it in, it wouldn't have been the first time the buildings had been featured on film or television. Since they didn't, it marks the first time the buildings were ever erased. With the 10th anniversary of the terrorist attacks on 9/11 coming this Sunday, it's impossible not to be consumed a bit by the gravity of an action that killed so many and lowered a different world view onto all of us. Landon and I talked on Reject Radio regarding the effect that the day had on movies and movie-watchers, but that mostly dealt with the last decade – the world that came after that morning. As a counterpart, here's a simply-edited montage of the past. Dan Meth has built a view to the movies where the Twin Towers either stood proudly in the background, made prominent appearances in the front of the action, or acted as the set. It's stirring in its matter-of-factness, and it's more than a little moving, but it's ultimately a celebration of a symbol that no longer (physically) exists. Check it out for yourself:
You Got Your 'Hawkeye' In My 'Thor'
Movie News By Scott Beggs on December 30, 2010 | Be the First To CommentWith all sights on The Avengers, Marvel is continuing to build its tangled web of cameos and inside jokes even though they crippled Iron Man 2. It's unclear what role he'll play in the story (or if he'll just be buying coffee in the background of a scene), but Jeremy Renner will appear as Hawkeye in Thor. Why is a cameo more likely than a small role? Because Hawkeye's origin story involves being moved by Iron Man (the hero, not the film) to become a masked hero. That story also includes Black Widow, so if this is truly Thor's movie, Hawkeye probably won't even be facing slings and arrows just yet. [The Wrap] [Awesome image done by Brandon Peterson]

Most maybe not all of us DirecTV people got it because of sports. How much is epic worth to a person. And would someone please tell me what movies are on it that I can't get.
I'm not a sports fan but have been a DirecTV sub for over 11 years now. We originally switched from Dish in October 2001 because of the DirecTiVo DVRs. Dish's then current DVR, the original Dishplayer, only had a single tuner and we wanted a dual tuner DVR. The Dishplayer, BTW, had the best looking UI of any DVR I have ever seen.
We are still with DirecTV for 2 reasons. We now have 7 TV outlets in the house, with 5 DVRs (one of them an HR34) and getting a similar arrangement with Dish Network is difficult (multiple Hoppers, more complex wiring). Secondly, we have restricted line of sight because of tall trees around the property and Dish's eastern arc would be difficult for us to pick up.
I have considered moving to FiOS (we have it already for internet and phone) but I'm not willing to live within Verizon's whole home DVR architecture restrictions.
I'll just point out that I switched from cable to satellite in the first place many years ago over a single channel: SciFi (as it was known then). My local cable provider (Cablevision) didn't carry it.
So, my reasons for being with DirecTV have nothing to do with sports.
My point remains: while you may see no particular value in Epix, others do. Just because you don't think it has much value doesn't automatically invalidate the point that some people might choose Dish Network specifically because of that channel. To them, Dish Network is offering something of value they cannot get from DirecTV, at any price.
Everyone's choice is valid, even if you don't agree with it. Everyone can certainly voice their choice and the reasons for it. What is distressing is how quickly such discussions turn into the disparaging of another's choice and the denigration of their chosen provider. I'm not singling anyone out here, it is, and has always been, an unfortunate fact of life on forums like these, going all the way back to DBSDish in the mid 90's (when we also had Primestar and Alphastar to kick around). It just seems to me that saying or implying that one provider is "better" than another is like arguing over Tuesday being "better" than Wednesday - it all depends on your own individual experiences and perspectives.

Eggertsville Brewhouse: Stealing the livers of suburbanites, one pint at a time!
How much water do you use for the strike and sparge?
I mash at 1.5 qts/lb and sparge until I get my desired preboil. For this, doing a 15 gallon batch, I mashed with 11.25 pounds, then sparged until I got to 15 gallons. I boil in a keggle, then just topped off with water after my boil to get to 16.5 in fermentors. I'm serving this keg on the 16th, going to lager this on gelatin for the next week and rack to keg the week prior to force carb.
1 month in the bucket is just days away. Hoping to keg this brew this weekend...that's IF my kegs I just purchased come by then. Oh yeah, I also dry hopped with Galena hops for last two weeks.
I make a new recipe of an Irish red every year and this one has been by far my favorite! The melanoiden malt is an amazing addition. It creates a beautiful deep red, but also gives it a depth of malt character I didn't expect. I did change up the hopping schedule to 50 IBU and only used Centennial because I love that hop. Even at 50 IBU the malt character is very prevalent. Great recipe! Pic to follow tonight.
Curious, did anyone adjust their water for this? I ended up using baking soda, epsom salt, and gypsum to get it close to an Ireland water profile.
Couple iPhone photos, not the best quality. This was in Primary for 24 days, cold crashed for 4 days, and kegged about 2 months ago. Looks great but batch is off a bit, was my first batch with a grain mill and I overshot OG by 10 points, which caused yeast to under attenuate since I didn't have a starter. And didn't have enough hops to balance it out better.

Reviews for Mushroom Sausage Strata
Sort By :
"Made this over the holiday and it was delicious. I used fresh mushrooms instead of canned and that worked just fine. A keeper!"
"This is a keeper recipe. This breakfast or brunch casserole was delicious and very easy to put together. I also agree that you could use hashbrowns in this recipe instead of bread. I will make this recipe for my family again and definitely recommend it to friends."
"I love sausage stratas and hash browns are NOT as good as bread in them. Don't fall for that!"
"I did leave out the worcestershire, and used ham and sausage, best strata I have ever had! Made it for my friends and they all had to have the recipie, what a hit! Also had to use evaported milk because I did not have 1/2 &1/2."
"I actually made this for dinner tonight. I stumbled upon it while looking for something to do with ground sausage. I sauteed an onion with the sausage, used 12 ounces of mushrooms, and used skim milk and fat free half and half. I just had it in the fridge for an hour or so. This was a nice surprise. Everyone liked it. I will make this again."

Kim Foster
SiWC Workshops
It's not hard to call up the names of incredibly talented writers whose health issues got the best of them: Ernest Hemingway, Virginia Woolf, Stieg Larsson. As writers, we spend a lot of time in one place—namely, sitting in front of a desk or computer. The recommendation to "keep your butt in your chair" is awesome advice for your writing productivity...but not so awesome for your actual butt. Writers are prone to a multitude of ailments: carpal tunnel syndrome, back pain, obesity, diabetes, eye strain, depression, alcoholism.... Staying health and—ideally—alive, are important investments in a nice, long writing career. In this talk, Dr. Kim Foster will be presenting solutions: ideas on incorporating exercise into a busy schedule, for example; strategies for dealing with the mental health threats of social isolation, deadline stress, and insomnia; and the mother of all questions: how much coffee is too much?
Got characters in your story who die, get injured, get sick? No time to go to medical school to make sure your details are plausible? No matter what genre you write, you want to get those medical facts right. What kind of events lead to a coma? How are viruses transmitted? What happens during an anaphylactic allergy? And what about those wonderfully dramatic—but tricky—scenes in hospitals: what's the difference between a resident and an intern, for example? Why do some of them wear short white coats and some of them wear long white coats...and others wear no damn coat at all? Dr. Kim Foster is an author and a medical doctor, and in this presentation she'll break down the myths and the tropes, and give you the answers you need for authenticity in your story.

Established in 1892 as a formalwear manufacturer, The London Fashion Workrooms branched into alterations in the seventies. The first large fashion workroom was launched in 1997 specifically to service the shops and boutiques of London's west end.
Based in Covent Garden with a 4000 square foot purpose built unit, we presently provide garment alteration services to 38 high-end London stores and many private clients. With 20 tailors on site we have the skills and personnel necessary to provide a one-stop service for all your needs.
We also offer a dry cleaning service for your convenience.
We have experienced professional dress fitters who can take accurate body measurements to ensure you acheive the perfect fit. All dress alterations are carried out on site so whether you want to shorten a hem or replace a zip, or even a full dress remodelling, we are available and you are free to pop in at any time.
The London Fashion Workrooms restore loved garments to their former glory. Whether they are ripped or worn, fixing garments is an economical way to preserve quality clothing. Some fabrics can be repaired using a simple patch. For jeans in particular this is a cost effective and hardwearing way of fixing a damaged area. Where appropriate we can disguise damage by adding a small dart or a cleverly placed new seam.
We can replace or reinforce well-worn areas of a garment such as the gusset of trousers to ensure a longer life. Our skilled tailors often reinstate worn out pockets and reline garments either fully or partly depending on your requirements.
For precious garments or finer fabrics such as wool or silk we can invisibly mend holes or rips by reweaving the fabric. We use threads taken from a concealed area of the garment such as a hem or internal facing to replicate the original weave. This technique dates back more than 200 years and is a highly skilled and time-consuming process. The result is as flawless as humanly possible.
We offer the most thorough corporate alterations service in London. With 3 drivers covering the whole city we collect and drop off to your store twice daily and offer a same day return at no premium.
Our management team offer full time Technical support, phone lines are open 9- 6 daily to assist with your sales, A tailor is just a telephone call away for advice on difficult fittings.
A fitting service is available on location, which can be booked in advance. Alternatively you can send your client to our showroom to be fitted by a professional tailor at no extra cost. Our aim is to fully support your staff in making sales. We offer free fitting training sessions for all your staff whenever it is necessary.
Along with supporting London's boutiques and 'off the peg' retailers, where we provide bespoke fitting for their garments, we are also available to the public.
Our tailors and seamstresses are all based on site in so please feel free to drop in to our showroom for a fitting any time, no appointment is necessary. Whether your garment is bespoke, made to measure, tailor made or off the peg our experienced group of tailors will be able to help you achieve the perfect fit.
We also offer a fitting service on location. Please call in advance to make arrangements for a tailor to visit you at your home or office.
Regular open evenings are held at our studio with talks from key figures in the fashion industry. This is a good opportunity for shop staff, clients and interested members of the public to visit our studio for an informal social evening to speak to tailors and learn about their skills.

I notice the Lightbringer hasn't scheduled a Whitehouse rose garden Photo-Op of the family victims from the Navy Yard. And crickets form his press secretary mouthpiece. I suspect they are still stinging from the ground swell backhand they received in Colorado. The issue has correctly been turned to one of mental health, and the liberal left won't touch that for the polar opposite reason that they want the rest of us on a National Gun Registry. They don't want a National Lunatic Registry that might very well include some of them.

Your brain sucks. All our brains suck. Or let me put it another way: Our brains are actually really amazing, but they're not nearly as infallible as we like to think they are.
Our brains filter through a constant tsunami of stimuli and piece the important parts together to recreate what we know as "reality." And they do all this in damn-near real-time—which is really impressive if you think about it. But here's the thing: a big chunk of what we consider "reality" actually consists of our brains making guestimates.
We know this because researchers have devised ways to consistently fool our brains into seeing things they're not really seeing—even when our brains know that's not what they're seeing. These little reality busters are known as "optical illusions."
Just think about the last movie or TV show you watched. As much as you might have been affected by the story, you weren't really watching those events taking place. Your gullible brain was presented with a rapid series of static images, which fooled it into thinking it was watching an event. This little trick is known as "the phi phenomenon."
We don't think of TV as an illusion, but that's just because it's common. But the truth of the matter is it's just Hollywood taking advantage of our easily tricked skull mush.
While our brains are complex, beautiful machines that help us maneuver fairly successfully through a big complicated world, they are far from perfect. Click through our slideshow to see 15 optical illusions that prove just how much our brains really, truly suck sometimes.

O.K., when I come home from work today my container of soil is in the sink drained, waiting to be sowed, and today it is Nicotiana. This is all first time stuff for me, so I get quite excited with each new kind of seed I sow. I smelled these beautiful flowers last year, and thought they would go great in a little patch of ground by our deck, so we could sit there in the evening after working in the garden all day (: (well, most likely just me working), enjoy a glass of wine and breathe deeply of the aroma.
Tomorrow it will be another new seed packet or two or three. What are you planning to sow today? Sandy |

Yesterday was Cerinthe (Purple Bells), Mesembryanthemum (Gelato Red), Passion Flower, Callistephus (Blue Ribbon), and Crested Celosia...my first time trying any of these. Today I will also do my Aztec Nicotiana and another two or three....hmmmm....what will it be??? Having fun. Happy Gardening! |

Trish, I looked up pictures of what you are sowing and they all look so beautiful. I hope you are successful. I never got around to sowing the Nicotiana yesterday (lots of stuff came up) so today I am definitely doing that, then I have to prep more containers as I've used up all the ready ones. :) Sandy |

I have sown so many things indoors for under my lights, and I just keep sowing. My light cart is full of covered trays and pots in baggies, started seedlings galore and I just keep on sowing. Can someone send me a doctor please, I think I am nuts. hehe Yesterday I sowed some Pelargoniums, Dianthus, Datura (three kinds), Nasturtiums (I know its early). Now I have about 30 different things growing and I am trying to restrict myself to only a few of each, this should be interesting! Does everyone have the growing fever early this year? I usually start only a couple of things this early like daylily. Know I'll have to get my other lamps hung early to accomodate everything that is sprouting and will need to be transplanted into individual pots. Hmm.... what will I sow today? Janet |

Today so far, I have done with the help of my son: Orange Butterfly Weed, Red Monarda 'Bee Balm', Potentilla 'Miss Wilmott', and Impatiens 'Mixed F2 Hybrid'. Going to pick up some containers tomorrow from a generous Garden Webber, so will be adding, and adding, and adding...I can't help it. I usually grow more than I need but I give the plants away to friends and family to grow in their garden. Making the world a beautiful place...one plant at a time!! :0) |

Canadian Imperial Bank of Commerce paid Chief Executive Officer Gerald McCaughey C$9.34 million ($9.47 million) in compensation last year, 50 percent more than the year earlier.
McCaughey, 54, received a salary of C$1.5 million, a C$3.13 million cash bonus and C$4.7 million in restricted shares, stock options and long-term incentives for 2010, according to a filing today by Canada's fifth-biggest bank. That compared to C$6.24 million in compensation in 2009. The amounts exclude pension costs.
McCaughey led CIBC to a profit of C$2.45 billion in the fiscal year ended Oct. 31, double the amount in 2009. He expanded the Toronto-based bank with three acquisitions, including the purchase of Citigroup Inc. (C)'s C$2.1 billion Canadian credit-card portfolio, a $150 million investment for a stake in Bermuda-based Bank of N.T. Butterfield & Son Ltd., and the purchase of CIT Business Credit Canada from partner CIT Group Inc. to expand corporate lending.
CIBC also said it awarded Richard Nesbitt, head of the bank's investment-banking unit, C$7.96 million for the year, up 46 percent from 2009.
Canadian Imperial is the last of the country's six-biggest banks to report 2010 compensation for its top executives.

Re:Not a contradiction (233 comments)
The preferred giant impact model has a Mars-sized impactor with a core-to-mantle ratio equal to the Earth's, with approximately 30% of its mass being in an iron core (http://adsabs.harvard.edu/abs/2004Icar..168..433C). Mars is ~1/6th the Earth's mass. In this impact, the material liberated that eventually forms the moon is iron poor, as the iron core of the impactor sinks into the Earth. That has been the interpretation as to why the Moon's iron core is so small (no more than 3% its total mass), so in this sense the giant impact model produces a satisfactory outcome. Some fraction of the lunar surface is accumulated over the 4 billion years since the Moon formed, but this layer is thought to be very thin, and the meteorites + Apollo samples we use to measure the moon's isotopic ratios come from a range of depths that probe significantly deeper than this surface layer. The fine-tuning argument comes from the fact that for an arbitrary combination of impactor + Earth mass, impact angle, velocity, etc, you'd expect a scatter in the isotope ratios consistent with the typical scatter measured between other bodies in the solar system (say that between Mars and the Earth). Fine-tuning is often employed in intelligent design arguments as they rely on the anthropic principle, but as there's no reason to require the Earth and Moon to have identical isotopic compositions to explain the existence of life, there is no particular reason to favor any particular outcome over the myriad of other outcomes for this particular measurement.
Re:Not a contradiction (233 comments)
The problem is that the ratio of Earth's mantle to Theia's mantle matters in the combination, even if mixing is efficient. The Earth's mantle is fully convective, and around 6 times the mass of the impactor's mantle, which means that you have to really fine-tune the conditions to achieve the exact right mixture. A good analogy would be trying to mix milk and water in a glass such that the fluid that splashes out of the glass has the same fraction of milk to water as the fluid remaining in the glass. With the original Oxygen isotope constraint, 95%+ of the lunar mantle needed to originate from the Earth, which is in direct conflict with the giant impact simulations that have been performed (which find 80% coming from the *impactor*), even for iron-rich impactors that preferentially remove Earth's mantle. This new constraint, if I am reading the paper correctly, is even stronger than the Oxygen isotope constraint, being at the part per million level rather than the part per ten thousand level.

Re:Not a contradiction (233 comments)
This doesn't work. The fractional element abundances depend not only on the location in the protoplantery disk, but on the timescales of accretion, which depend on the mass of the object accreting. Thus, even if you formed Theia in L4/L5, the isotopic ratios should be different, as the two objects will have different masses.

Re:nothing special... (347 comments)
These results are specifically about the deviation of the spectrum produced by a human from a black body, and how that varies throughout the day. For a blackbody, the number of photons coming out as visible radiation is 1/10^3000 the total number (assuming a body temperature of ~280K, the number is so tiny because visible photons fall into the exponential Wein tail of the BB distribution), so you would naÃvely predict that no human has ever emitted a visible photon. Ever. So yes, it is something special.

Quoth the conclusion of the referenced paper:
"These possibilities, combined with the observation that the

main sequence one appear to make the case for tidal disruption
somewhat contrived. Nonetheless, with only one object, and
thus an essentially unconstrained rate and space density for
such events, it remains a possibility."

Insurance companies are specialists in retirement planning; if there were no advantages of owning insurance instruments, the chances of the industry prospering for as long as it has would be lower.
It's no surprise that the majority of Americans aren't good at saving for retirement. Many Baby Boomers are waking up to the realization that they are going to have to work much longer in order to afford retirement or possibly not even retire at all.
Despite all the benefits of variable annuities, problems still persist, most notably annuity exploitation, financial risks and additional costs.
An elective deferral is the part of an employee's income that is withheld for contribution to a 403(b) plan. This amount is considered pre-taxed income and does not become taxable until withdrawal.
The reasons for recharacterizations vary, but if done for good reasons, recharacterizing of IRA contributions can outweigh the drawbacks allowing for several possible advantages in terms of financial and tax planning.
Requirements for rolling over a 401(k) into an IRA, rollover options and effective tips for handling the process.
We all procrastinate—some of us more than others. I understand that at twenty-something, even at thirty-something, retirement is viewed as event so distant, a sense of urgency is difficult to muster … big mistake!
So, does this bad news mean that Illinois residents should just throw in the towel when it comes to retirement planning? No!
While you may not feel as though you have much extra money to save for retirement, the fact is you can boost your retirement contributions if you really want. Here are four strategies you can employ to increase your retirement savings:
One of the great things about our retirement account system is that you have the chance to receive tax benefits for setting money aside for the future. The great debate for retirement plans is between the Traditional IRA and the Roth IRA.

Synergetics Reports Record Sales And Operating Income For Third Quarter
Synergetics USA, Inc. (NASDAQ: SURG) ("Synergetics" or the "Company"), a medical device company that designs, manufactures, and markets innovative microsurgical instruments for ophthalmic and neurosurgical applications, today announced its results for the third quarter and nine months ended April 30, 2011. The Company reported third quarter 2011 sales of $14.7 million and net income of $1.6 million, or $0.07 per diluted share.
"Synergetics' operating income jumped 20.6% to a record $2.5 million, or 16.8% of net sales, in the third quarter of fiscal 2011, compared to the third quarter of fiscal 2010 and benefited from higher sales, margins and improved product mix compared with the third quarter of last year," stated Dave Hable, President and CEO of Synergetics USA, Inc. "The jump in our operating income this quarter also demonstrates the leverage we have achieved by utilizing our marketing partners to sell and distribute our neurosurgical products.
"Sales of disposable products continued to accelerate and exceeded 80% of total third quarter 2011 sales due to the contribution from new products and increased demand from both domestic and international customers. Sales of ophthalmic products rose 18.6% to $9.2 million and accounted for 62.8% of total third quarter sales. Demand for ophthalmic disposable products continues to grow and was a major driver in our improved sales since last year. In addition, OEM sales were up 29.4% to $2.8 million for the third quarter of 2011, compared to the third quarter of 2010, due primarily to increased shipments to Codman & Shurtleff, Inc.

I've got about 50 different plummies. Basically all of my plants have your typical thin, non-shiny leaves, but I noticed that my Daisy Wilcox leaves are very thick, waxy and leathery. It almost looks like they are evergreen, similar to my Mele Pa Boman, which has Singapore as a parent. Does anyone know if Daisy Wilcox tends to keep their leaves year round or is this a true deciduous tree? |
Follow-Up Postings:
Daisy is not an evergreen and it will drop all its leaves each winter. |

A grant from the State Farm Mutual Automobile Insurance Company will help professors in Rowan University's College of Education fund a program that educates teens and their parents about safe driving.
When Dr. Thomas Gallia sits in the audience at Rowan University's commencement ceremonies on Friday, it will be the first time in decades he does so as a guest.
The Rowan University Foundation, the philanthropic and fundraising arm of Rowan University, committed to allocate $5 million to a new venture capital fund to fuel new research initiatives by faculty, students and alumni.
Donation from Rowan Family Foundation funds engineering Ph.D. program, more.
A generous gift from Susquehanna Bank has given Rowan University students a huge boost in their efforts to assist typhoon victims in the Philippines.
Rohrer Foundation's donation creates $2 million endowment.
The Rowan Television Network, one of Rowan University's largest student organizations, will broadcast the "Philippine Benefit Special: Typhoon Haiyan Relief" from 7-8:30 p.m. on Tuesday, Dec. 3.
Robert and Susan Brooks are hoping that their $100,000 gift to Rowan University will help take the University's athletics program to the next level. That next level might just be construction of facilities on the university's West Campus.
When Gene Elliott first arrived in downtown Glassboro in 1962 with his wife, Connie, she turned to him and said, "This place certainly needs a beauty treatment."

English Gardens began as a single, family-owned nursery in 1954, and has since blossomed into a full-service landscaping and garden center with multiple locations, all owned and operated by second-generation family members. Each location facilitates both indoor and outdoor gardening projects. The florist department brings the outdoor flourish inside by arranging fresh-cut floral bouquets and gift baskets for all manner of occasions. Workshops and in-store presentations also allow the green-thumbed experts to impart advice on common gardening and decorating topics such as building a kitchen herb garden or housetraining a dogwood tree. During the summer season, English Gardens holds a summer planting sale as well as weekly in-store gardening tutorials every Saturday at 10 a.m.
Family patriarch Nordy Rockler opened the doors of his first store in 1954 to supply his fellow craftsmen with knowledge, friendly advice, and a large selection of tools for at-home woodworking projects. Now, the chain of retail outlets brims with more than 20,000 tools and specialized woodworking equipment. Next to a steely rainbow of hinges, casters, and screws, a supply of lumber and exotic hardwoods provides planks for building tree houses or just leaving around as a warning to uncooperative trees. The tenor buzz of power tools operated by newly knowledgeable guests drifts from educational sessions on operating equipment and woodworking.
The hibernation experts at Mattress & Futon Shoppe help foster deep sleep with cushions from top brands such as Sealy, Stearns & Foster, and Corsicana. Well-versed in all forms of sleep habits, the store employees are happy to expound on the finer points of each mattress they keep in stock, which range from traditional innerspring beds to high-tech gel memory-foam mattresses. If your new mattress doesn't feel right or already has a family of monsters sleeping under it, Mattress & Futon Shoppe has a 100-day Don't Worry Sleep Happy comfort warranty, and you can return the unwanted item to one of 13 convenient locations.
With more than 3,000 products in stock and learned clerks, Organic America infuses would-be green thumbs with the supplies and skills to bolster indoor and outdoor gardens. The staff, which includes professional farmers and retired Swamp Things, educates clientele with seminars and in-store conversation. Weekly workshops detail the essential techniques necessary for successful organic or hydroponic harvests, including crop rotation and biological pest control. Behind the store's low-slung façade, verdant displays show the life cycle of healthy plants as they mature from seeds to flowers and eventually to parade floats.
According to the Haberman family, we are in the midst of a sewing renaissance. Having been in the business of selling a variety of fabrics, sewing supplies, and accessories since 1958, they should know. Owner Toby Haberman sees sewers inspired by TV's Project Runway and Extreme Makeover: Home Edition wander the aisles of Haberman Fabrics' 18,000-square-foot store, considering silks, lace, denims, or velvets for their projects. Many of them stay for sewing classes, in which both novices and intermediate sewers can learn new skills or wear thimbles on every finger.
The Aquarium Shop unleashes an assortment of aquatic denizens on land-living lifeforms, like a garage sale held by King Poseidon to raise money for repairs to his seahorse-powered cruiser. Items include saltwater, freshwater, and pond merchandise, complete with pond fish ($5–$25), pond plants ($5–$25), pond food ($10–$50), tropical fish ($2–$30), saltwater fish ($5–$100), and live rock ($8 per lb.). Find actors for your all-koi version of Hamlet, pick up an African cichlid for prom-night punch-bowl pranks, or buy coral with which to dress up in doll's clothing and play tea party. The Aquarium Shop also has a large variety of tanks in stock for fish owners looking to update the digs of their deep-dwelling dorsalled doppelgangers.

US Passive House Conference Showcases Loads Of Green Building Goodies
Posted By Andrew Michler On October 19, 2012 @ 11:20 am In Features,Green Products,Sustainable Building | No Comments
Zola European Windows
Perhaps the most engineered product in Passive House is the window with plenty of manufacturers keen to strut their triple and quadruple panes. Big news was the end of Serious Windows, a unique window company which used film in the center instead of a sheet of glass and the only US window that came close to passive house specs. They are reborn as Alpen Windows, [6] a Boulder, Colorado company which founded the technology. Another Boulder window company which is making inroads in the super efficient window market is Zola Windows, [7] which imports custom units that meet the exacting passive house standards and does R&D for the many US climates. Intus Windows [8], a low cost passive house window, comes in at a much lower price than many other European companies using German components based on uPVC, but fabricates the windows in Lithuania to be more cost-competitive.
Lunos ERV
The high tech and high performance device in every passive house is a heat or energy recovery ventilator. Passive House not only takes into account the efficiency of the heat exchanger as the home is constantly flushed with fresh air but also the electricity required to do so. The US company UltimateAir [10] has a high efficiency ERV and fully programmable unit which hit the sweet spot of performance and cost using a rotary core heat exchanger. A step up in efficiency is Zehndar [11] which also sells engineered air distribution systems that maximize performance. Air Pohoda [12], the most efficient unit at the conference, made its debut from Czechoslovakia. While enormous compared to the others, it has nearly half the energy consumption, a big deal for a device that runs 24/7. Brooklyn-based material supplier 475, named after the famous energy threshold for passive house, was touting their micro Luno ERV. [13] A 5-inch round tube that contains a super efficient reversible fan and ceramic core that captures the heat in the outgoing stale air also reverses to heat the incoming fresh air.
Termco EXOAir
The latest talk in the green building world is that air sealing is as important as insulation. Swiss based Siga Tapes [14] and membranes are an entire air sealing system which rely on two air barriers. Here is what is so extraordinary about them: not only do their tapes stick to just about anything to keep the chill out but are made with 100% organic non-voc materials that easily outperform the petroleum-based stuff made in the US. What about a foam tape that expands from 1/4 inch to nearly 2" in a couple of hours? The Termco EXOAir [15] window tape is a unique replacement for expanding can foam, which is not only messy but hard to get where you want it.
Another way to air seal is to use R-Guard Cat5 [16] by Prosoco, a sort of gasket-in-a-can, was tested to a simulated category 5 hurricane and let in zero water through the window. The simplicity of using the product is double bonus for providing high efficiency results when it comes to making a wall system air tight.
Cork Insulation
Insulation is also a big, big deal. Joe Lstiburek [18] said to the audience in the opening plenary, "insulating good, solar bad," referring not only to failed passive solar homes but the over-reliance on slapping technology on a roof and calling it a green building. His method of choice has been foam but more earth friendly, energy sipping products were on display. Cork Insulation [19] has found its way across the Atlantic and while it comes at a premium price, it is a uniquely healthy choice. More mainstream was German made Agepan fiberboards [20] which clad buildings in an air tight water resistant coat that is still vapor open to reduce chances for rot.
Roxul Drainboard image by Rocky Mountain Passive House
For a stateside low impact insulation which performs even better when it comes to rot prevention, look no further than Roxul DrainBoard [22], a dense board made from mineral wool – a compressed mixture of rock and slag. Priced similarly to XPS foam but without the environmental impact, DrainBoard [22] is vapor open and can be used underground.
The most exciting aspect of future high performance homes may be the recent innovation of Phase Change [24] BioPCmat, a bio based waxy material in a plastic blister pack which when placed inside a wall can retain and release heat at prescribed values. As the wax melts at say 78 degrees it can store the equivalent heat as 12 inches of concrete in just half an inch. By absorbing heat in the day and releasing it at night buildings can use much smaller HVAC equipment, thereby saving money and energy while keeping interiors comfortable. It doesn't get more passive than that.

"A sometimes fun, sometimes unfocused memoir"
Fry presents us with a detailed account of his life, a bit too detailed at times in my opinion. Thankfully he is a masterful reader and performer, which saves the day when he veers off into too much unimportant detail.
Fry comes off as a very likable person, even more so due to his freely admitted, and much discussed insecurities. It is evident that he is fiercely intelligent and well read and educated, and I found myself occasionally losing track of what he was saying as his vocabulary is a lot more advanced than mine.
I am a fan of the work he did with his friends Hugh Laurie and Rowan Atkinson, especially Blackadder and Jeeves & Wooster. It was largely on the basis on my love for those shows that I decided to listen to this audiobook.
As the book only stretches just past Fry's 30th birthday I feel that a couple of hours could have been shaved off.
"A surprisingly brilliant book"
I say surprisingly brilliant, but I had seen the customer ratings and read a couple of reader reviews so it may not have been a total surprise.
I bumped into Lowe's autobiography while browsing for 80s cinema related books on Amazon. Admittedly Lowe had never rated that highly on my radar, but I noticed it had a solid star rating and decided to investigate further. This was to be my first of many books here on Audible. It is my favorite audiobook so far, out of 10 or so, due to both excellent performance by Lowe as a narrator and his brilliant storytelling.
Lowe tells us the story of his life so far, holds nothing back and seems to omit details only when it might otherwise hurt someone who is, or has been close to him. Lowe's pacing is great, he gives just enough detail to never become boring and somehow manages to make the ordinary events of his early life seem just as interesting as his later years as a movie star.
Highly recommended

What in the heck are private LPN programs? - page 5
Recently I have a positon in which LPN's are on staff. In the 1970's, my Dean, Dr. Luther Christman, was instrumental in discouraging LPN programs. I realize that times have changed. I have changed... Read More
0Nov 21, '11 by tothepointeLVNQuote from BeachBedheadI wanted you to be aware that your statement was contradictory so you could have the opportunity to clarify. Sometimes the wrong syntax can change the way a message comes across. Your statement were not offensive persay but broad and sweeping implying that if you have the funds to chose a more expensive school that is somehow makes you less of a nurse. There are high priced for profit schools in all professions including laws and even medicine (those medical school in the Caribbean jump to mind) so the phenomena is by no means restricted to nursing.I dont know if you felt attacked by post or offended or if you were just be informative but I was just stating my opinion about a particular program here. I, in know way was saying you have to be rich or poor to be a requisite for a nursing program.
But its online so anything can be taken anyway...so sorry to offend or whatever... -
0Nov 21, '11 by DarkBluePhoenixOh no oops
I.meant they do not req pre reqs to get in. You cam come in with them done or do them there. That is what I meant. Sorry I was typing on my phone and sometimes I am too busy correctly phonetically (?) To correct myself grammatically. -
0Nov 21, '11 by tothepointeLVNI understand. I have an iPhone that won't let me cuss worth a darn and I'm always telling people they are full of shot
I guess what it all boils down to if people are paying for it then there must be some value in it and I think the fact that that "university" bundles the prereqs is a selling point for most of their students.
Though in many schools it is implied but not guaranteed that if you complete your prerequisites with them you will move on to the clinical portion. The school I'm taking my prereqs at has that arrangement each semester they see how many of their students are ready to move on and then they pick from the direct application pool. -
4Nov 21, '11 by Old.TimerQuote from nerdtonurse?COULD NOT AGREE MORE .....! I was fortunate to work with awesome LPN's. They saved my butt many a time, especially especially when I was new. Thankfully, I was smart enough to know how little I knew and how much they knew. It was not just experience knowledge either; they had fabulous assessment, problem solving and prioritization skills.And FYI, I don't care what initials you put behind your name, I care how smart you are, how safe you are, and how well you work with a team. I'd rather have a good, experienced LPN on shift with me than a brand new, thinks they know it all, ink on my license still wet BSN.
1Nov 22, '11 by smartnurse1982To the op: I think that the reason they were having a hard time is because of poor on the job training,not the program they attended.caliotter3 likes this.

Get outside and let your feet hang loose! There is no other piece of clothing that's so closely connected to the summer as toe sandals. You can slip into and out of them at will when hit by the odd heat wave or freak desire to relax and take life easy. And yeah, when going to the swimming pool, sauna or foam party, flip-flops are probably the only sane footgear to wear. So flip and flop your own way! 100% polyester

Illumination plan for Memorial Bridge begins with fundraising campaign
PORTSMOUTH - A community campaign has been launched to try to raise $60,000, to start, for the illumination of the new Memorial Bridge.
Members of the illumination subcommittee of the Memorial Bridge Community Involvement Committee announced that they are raising a total of $80,000 to illuminate the bridge and make it a night-time attraction in addition to being a daytime icon for the Seacoast.
Fundraising is taking part in two phases, with the first being a goal of $60,000 in pledges. When that goal has been reached, the committee will work with the Portsmouth Historical Society to collect the pledges and fund the actual installation of the illumination.
The illumination plan is compliant with New Hampshire's Dark Skies initiative and will accent the towers, piers and memorial plaques on the bridge. It is being designed by John Powell, who also designed the illumination of the bridges crossing the Charles River between Boston and Cambridge, Mass.
Both the Portsmouth City Council and the Kittery Town Council have given the plan their blessing. The Portsmouth City Council also voted unanimously to create a trust for the illumination project funds.
"I am very excited about it," Portsmouth Mayor Eric Spear said. "I think the new bridge has a lot of innovative concepts but still respects our historical traditions and I'd like for people to see it, especially in the winter when it gets dark at 4:30."
He said lighting up the bridge will also reinforce a sense of pride and a sense of place for Portsmouth and Kittery, Maine, and New Hampshire.
Spear grew up near Washington, D.C., and said when visitors came to town his family would always take them through the nation's capital at night, to see the buildings and monuments lit up.
"So I've always had an affinity for that type of presentation," Spear said.
He said the fact that the illumination project is a community effort reflects that people on both sides of the river want to participate in bettering their communities.
"I cannot think of a downside to this. It's full of win. It has more win than Charlie Sheen," Spear said.
Spear said the annual electrical costs for the project will be modest and shared between Portsmouth and Kittery.

The Kraft Taste is stupid--I just got them for the cheese The Hot Pocket snackers are bleh, but I swear Totino's pizza stuffers are so nasty! Even DH asked me not to buy them again. Publix salsa => is always bad when I buy it I never seem to get a good batch. Pillsbury Egg Scrambles => Eww, hard yucky eggs with a few chunks of veggies thrown in. I can make my own delicious egg scamble in 2-3 minutes thanks! |
Coles garlic bread: too salty/almost bitter to me. I much prefer the New York brand, or Pepperidge Farm as a second choice. Milkbites: OK, but certainly won't pay for them...might pick up if they are free again and I need a filler, but otherwise, I'll pass. Fresh Take: see Milkbites Philly Cooking Creme: I don't like cream cheese anyways, and I had a hard time using up the two I bought. Cascadian granola bars: none of their flavors really appeal to me, and the texture of the kids' ones was somewhat offputting. Kind of a cross between a granola bar and a Milkbites...it was like it had too much filler and not enough granola. Regular milk: Smart Balance has ruined me. Reps are back...for now. I owe loads of gratitude to everyone that got me where I am! Read the *NEW* CVS FAQ and post your questions there. Let's keep the deal threads deal-related, please.
Would it kill you to read the wiki? Or to read the thread? All the experts got to where they are by reading...you can too. |

It is 10:30 and way past my bedtime. I usually get up at 4:30each morning so staying awake at this hour is killing me.
I am in the process of making cakes for my son's baseball/communion party this Saturday. Saturday is going to be the day from hell. We have a game at 8am and a game at 10am. Then we have to be at church, dressed in suits, ties, dresses and heels for my son's First Holy Communion at 2pm. Immediately following that, we are having a party for 150 people for the baseball team (end of the season), family, neighbors, etc. The kids will swim and we will grill and drink all night. I wanted a cool cake for DS that was half baseball and half Holy Communion. Let me tell you the combination of the two is a tough concept to mesh. Then you throw in the fact I can't cook to save my life and things are getting uglier. I tried to see what the Publix Bakery could do and well . . . let's just say if it wasn't in the book, they didn't have any ideas. They had a graduation cupcake combo idea that I somewhat stole and am going to try and make work. I am baking the cakes now. They are taking FOREVER to cook. It doesn't help that I only have 1 mold and I need 4 halves to make 1 baseball. I need to get the cakes in the freezer for a few days so they will be easy to work with Friday night. I am trying to do a combo cake with some MLB wrappers but we will have to see how it comes out. The funny part is how do you incorporate "First Communion" into a baseball cake? I told DH that I was going to go buy a plastic cross and stick it in the top of the darn baseball. He looked at me like I was crazy, but I have to tell you that I am seriously considering it. I will post a picture of the cake when I am finally done. |
BTW, we asked them to use custard as the filling for the Publix cake and it was DELICIOUS! Have fun on the big day!! |
Just wanted to say hello after a bit of an absence. I missed you all!
The way I see it every life is a pile of good things and bad things. The good things don't always soften the bad things but vice versa the bad things don't necessarily spoil the good things and make them unimportant |
If you follow only one rule, let it be this one. Be yourself. The really strong relationships are based on what people really are, not on what they pretend to be.

text: But the Mag's indestructibility is its main selling point. Mag Instrument builds its flashlights with ultrastrong aluminum alloy cases that have been anodized both inside and out to resist rust. High-quality O-rings at both openings keep water away from the batteries. It's hard to imagine damaging one of these lights. Think of it this way: if, as one of our customers suggests, there were a kingdom of flashlights, Mag-Lite would be crowned king. --Jon Groebner
